>>28198804This is a good bet. I think the news is coming at a strange time because 1) they didn't want to step on the Direct's toes and 2) they are taking no chances with CoroCoro leaking whatever they are showing.
It's two months to go before game day, and that's the timeframe for Mega Evolution's reveal. Whatever bonding and Ash-Greninja are, I think we are going to learn more soon. September is also when the past two batches of middle starter evos have been shown, but there's a chance they'll hold those till the final month.
